Nut,
Did you notice your AUW is increasing by at least a pound every time you post???

Isn't it odd that nearly all airplanes sorta pick up weight when exposed to maiden flight readiness status, and then following modifications and improvements? It happens to the very best of us!!!

PS - I am certain more than a few "target weight" statements on "kit" and "ARF" aircraft have been fudged and lied about without shame in the past! I have one RTF jet that you'd have to cut off one of the wing panels and leave the flight battery on the ground to achieve the target weight listed. These guys had the benefit of a flying model and a scale, so I don't hold Andy and Nut to the fire much, they are blazing some serious trail here

yeah "burt" we need a daily report ...just like at work ...then we'll all sit around and big deal it in meetings ,change direction a couple of times ..put junk yard parts on the plane ...and cry it his fault ...no it that guys ...when we miss a flight....lol just keep us posted ,you can do it ...just cut back on sleeping eh!

got the canopy mounted last night...man, i wish we could have done this as a single piece canopy!!! what a pain!!!!! but its on lol. glued the vertical on last night. i also "potted" in the wing, to make it fit super tight to the fuse. tonight i do the semi final sanding, and the application on a light coat of flat white to give a base for the final paint, as we as to see if i have any more blems i need to work out before paint. decals should be here by the end of the week. i got word from my wife that a "freaking heavy box arrived"....aka....the batteries from andy lol. servos should be in by the end of the week as well. i just got word that i have the monday off before vegas as well, so that will help
